Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I think I might have a hemorrhoid . I noticed it Saturday. I ve been coughing for a while now, also. So tonight I noticed blood/felt blood. Will I need to see a dr.? I also had an ablation 3 weeks ago and right after had problems going (felt like I was passing a softball) for the first 2-3 days...been fine until Saturday. What should I do?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Some advices that I can give to you are: -Add fiber to your diet slowly to avoid problems with gas. - Use topical treatments. Apply an over-the-counter hemorrhoid cream, suppository containing hydrocortisone, use pads containing witch hazel or a numbing agent. -Soak regularly in a warm or sitz bath.
